The wooden Wild Mouse coaster gives the sensation that the white-knuckle ride will fly off the track during each turn because the wheels are positioned near the rear of the car. Built in 1960 at Morecambe Pleasure Park in northwest England, the coaster was relocated to Pleasureland Southport in 1999. Only two wooden Wild Mouse coasters survive in the UK, with the other at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
